Porsche 356

B Roadster Super 90

• Powerfull Super 90-engine
• Matching numbers

The Porsche 356 was first launched in 1948 and soon became the benchmark for small sports coupes around the world, especially when used for trackdays and roadrally’s. The first open-top Porsche which left a big impact on the crowd was the 356 pré-A Speedster.

When the production for the highley succesfull Speedster stopped, in 1959 Porsche proudly announced their newly redesigned model: the 356B Roadster. The introduction of the new model came with a lot of minor changes and was available as a 1600, 1600 Super, Super 90 and Carrera. The Super 90 was the strongest pushrod-engine Porsche had ever produced back then, due to its bigger inletvalves, reworked cylinderheads and double twin-choke carburettors, delivering a whopping 90 horsepower! Many people at the time, journalists and customers alike, regarded the Super 90 as the best car Porsche had ever produced, and many still do. A total of 2 650 examples of the 356B Roadster Super 90 have been produced, but in 1961 only a mere 89 cars left the Drauz-factory, a true rarity!


This stunning Porsche 356B Roadster Super 90 was delivered in 1961 to its first owner by ‘Baden Auto’ out of Freiburg, Germany. The car was driven around regulary and in September that followed, the Porsche got exported to the United States, where the 356 was even more popular! Once landed in the States, the car got delivered to its second owner, Dr. Andrew Wiedmer out of the New York-area.

Fast forward a few years and this rare Roadster found its way back to Europe, where it underwent a thorough restoration. No expenses were spared to restore this Super 90 back to its former glory! The body was carefully painted in Slate Grey, a period correct Porsche color available in 1961, and the completely restored interior retained its original black shade. The matching numbers engine and transmission have been completely rebuilt, just as the rest of the car.

We are proud to tell you that this Roadster is without a doubt one of the best examples we have driven. So far the engine, gearbox and suspension perform their duties effortlessly and ensure that the ride is not only smooth and sporty but also very comfortable. Hours are easily spent carefree on the road: the steering, brakes and clutch are so light that you’ll never have to struggle. You would even almost forget you’re driving an early 60’s oldtimer! The last owner was a real enthusiast and after the restoration, the Roadster was used primarily for some summer trips and events under the best conditions.

It goes without saying that this Porsche is in excellent operating order and has no additional costs to be foreseen.
